Rating: Summary: GREAT walking tape! Review: I usually walk outside, but with winter here in Michigan, I can't always do that. I originally purchased this tape for my daughter, borrowed it, loved it, then purchased one for myself.This is a great workout for your legs and arms and you walk three miles while doing it inside! I would recommend this tape for anyone used to walking three miles and wants/needs to walk inside.
Rating: Summary: Thank God Review: My friend Alisa and I tried Leslie's 3 mile walk away the pounds tape when we checked it out at the library. It is one of the best things that has happened to our on again off again weight loss. So many times we contemplated over tapes. This one was perfect for us and Leslie's talking was wonderful to us because we realized that the calming and instructual voice was the voice of a christian. We loved the excersize and we loved hearing the praises that was coming from her spiritual heart. Thank you Leslie for sharing your SPIRITUAL GIFT with us. God bless you. Keep on sharing your grace and wisdom. You have certainly allowed the Holy Spirit to work through you to help those of us who can not always pound the pavement or hit the street to walk. Not to mention the ones like me who have had back surgery and can't take all the high impact but still needs to sweat. Your tape is a real blessing to us. It is always good when you know the light of Christ is visible in a person that you have never actually met. We feel the equivilant of a great and meaningful work out when we are done. It is motivating and easy enough for a child that may be experinceing obesity and have a hard time keeping up with other aerobic tapes.Or for people who have never been active in excersizing. Thank You again. Iris and Alisa
Rating: Summary: One of the Best Aerobic Workout Videos Out There Review: This is one of the best aerobic workout videos out there. I was seeking a workout video that would make me sweat without making me do jumping and complicated moves, and that would not bore me as well. Thanks to Leslie Sansone's "Walk Away the Pounds - Super Fat Burning" video, I got what I was looking for...easy to follow and non-strenous exercise moves that gave my heart and leg & arm muscles a great workout (she uses two 2 lb weights after the first mile). This 49 min 3-mile walk can be tailored to 1-2 mile walks (15-30 min) but the whole workout goes by very fast. The exercise moves are easy on your joints and back. I highly recommend it!
Rating: Summary: These turned me into a joyful excerciser Review: I have used many excercise videos, and machines but I always fizzle out because they are too hard, not fun, etc. But this one has me excited! I can do the moves, I work up a sweat, and I feel great afterwords. I have read several reviews that comment on the amount of chatter in the workout, and many don't like it. I really enjoy it because the chatter is upbeat and yes corny. It gets my mind off of huffing and puffing and onto how silly they sound. I did purchase the walk-away weights, and I enjoy them. I also use wrist weights occassionally for fun and change. I feel much more energetic and now I have a bounce in my step. Try them I am sure you will love them!
Rating: Summary: Good for beginners Review: After reading so many rave reviews online, I decided to give the tape a try. I have to say I was extremely disappointed and didn't even make it through the entire tape. Since I wear a heart monitor during all my workouts, I was waiting to see how long it would take to get to my target range; about 15 minutes into the tape (and I was pushing myself as hard as I could), I didn't even break the low end of my range. If you are just starting out, it would be a great, easy workout to try, but I would not recommend it for those who have been working out for a few years.
Rating: Summary: GREAT WORKOUT Review: I have used Leslie's workout tapes for 2 weeks now and I can't believe how great I feel. I have alot more energy. You get a really great workout when you use these tapes, upper body as well as lower body. The tapes are very easy to follow if your new to exercise tapes. There are not alot of moves to remember in fact my husband started doing the tapes with me and he has lost 10 pounds in 2 weeks, I've lost about 7. Please try these tapes.I feel guilty if I have a busy day and think I can't fit one in, the one mile tape gives you a good workout in only 20 minutes.
Rating: Summary: great tape Review: I have used this tape for 6 weeks and it has worked for me. I have lost 15 pounds and feel great. It's challenging yet not too complicated to follow. If you are interested in losing weight, not learning dance moves this is your dvd.
Rating: Summary: Not bad Review: I bought this video with the intention of using it everyday for exercise. It is not a bad video, but there is definatly a lot of talking on it. It does get a bit corney at times, but overall the workout is not that bad. There is a section of this workout where you can use some weights, but it is not necessary. The steps are very simple and do not take up a lot of room.
Rating: Summary: I fell in love with it! I do all 3 tapes every day! Review: Wow:These tapes are the best I have found of all the walking tapes available. I have a pedometer and checked it against how far she claims you travel in miles on the tapes. It seems to be accurate! I started out with the one mile tape and after 3 days was able to do all 3 tapes plus her 4 mile tape. I became so addicted to them I do it every day with dumbells and ankle weights on. I am up to 10 miles a day. The tapes are in real time the class is upbeat and I feel like I am really part of an actual class! I am in great shape and losing wt and inches now thanks to doing them daily. I look forward to them. Its just makes exercise fun . and an eagerly anticipated AM activity. I love the 3 mile tape the best. It takes about 40 min to get the Endorphin runners high going but... it works to get you there!I am a fan for life of this woman! She is a bit chatty but that is part of her charm and style. I highly recommend them. I made the mistake of buying a Denise Austin "trimwalk tape"-hated it, and took it back the next day. Compared to Leslie's tapes. I thought Denise Austin seemed like an over bearing egotistical, misdirected moron. I truly disliked the bowling and basketball steps, how stupid. She goes too fast is disorganized and talks in a vapid, air headed half whisper very irritateing.It's a total waste of your money. Leslie-your my girl, Denise needs to take walking instructions from you.Thanks I love your class. See you in the AM for my 7-10 mile body rush! D.Allen
Rating: Summary: post-op surgery Review: I had major breast surgery. MY doc said I could not run or lift anything greater than 5 pounds. I saw this video and decided to start the program. I believe that this walking program increased my endurance and made me recover from my surgery faster. I've had other surgeries before and have not felt as well. This video is good for someone trying to regain their strength. Am not a runner and am 50 pounds overweight and have never felt better than after starting this fitness workout. sue
